SOLVED: Can't reboot into recovery - Droid Incredible General

Everything has been fine until today. I tried rebooting into recovery through ROM manager and it just sticks on the white Incredible screen. I do a battery pull and restart the phone to see if I can reflash the recovery and ROM manager tells me that I need to check my internet connection and to check my SD card to make sure its not full (which my connection is fine and the SD is not full) I tried reinstalling ROM manager and formating my SD card, but I still have the same issue. Any Ideas?
Solved: I had to reinstall the clockwork recovery manually through fastboot. Still wondering what happened though

RA and Clockwordmod recoveries keep rebooting

Hello,
Already had a rooted Mytouch and found a Magic at a great price and just had to pull the trigger!
The Magic was already rooted and I tried to flash CM 6.1 however, when I try to flash it either manually (by rebooting manually into recovery) or via ROM Manager, the phone either reboots, skips the recovery screen and starts as usual or it will boot into recovery let me access a menu or two then freeze and reboot as per usual.
I tried flashing both RA and clockworkmod (different versions from 2.0.0.0 to 2.5) and it keeps on doing it. I even tried swapping SD Cards, uninstalling Rom Manager, clearing its cache. But to no avail.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Post here all your fastboot info...ALL

[Q] Apparently I screwed up. SOLVED!

I have my nook rooted and all of that and for some reason I decided to wipe the thing clean in CWM recovery and now it won't boot to anything unless I boot from SD. I've tried booting into a rom from SD and installing CWM recovery again through rom manager and it says that is has flashed successfully but when I tell it to restart it goes back to the rom on the SD of course, so I tried taking the SD out and holding down the N and booting into recovery and I get nothing no loading screen no nothing, am I not getting CWM installed? Is there a zip I can flash from CWM on SD to flash it?
EDIT!!!!! If i had remembered to format the right things then I wouldn't have had an issue.
If you are having the problem described above remember to format BOOT, System, and Data. And then flash your rom.

Thank you I don't know what I was thinking, if I had just formated the right things it would have worked just fine, I am a tard sometimes.

[Q] Stuck at recovery

Hi, I just flashed CM7.2 MiRaGe - KANG build, from the recovery, and now i`m stuck at it.
I did a dalvik wipe before flash it.
Now, every time reboots into recovery. (CWM 3.2.0.1)
I did a nandroid restore, i flashed again, and wipe all and restore, and wipe all and flashed again... :/
Is there any solution, before I search the "back to stock and root again" posts?
Were you trying to install onto the SD card or the internal emmc memory? Give us some more details of which method you were using. I don't understand your reference to a Nandroid restore as part of this. That would normally be used to restore a previous back up.
If you were installing onto SD card then just removing the card should get you back to stock and then you can start again.
If you were installing to internal then it sounds like you have somehow managed to flash just Recovery and not the real ROM. In that case you should be able to just check you have a good ROM download, put MiRaGe back on the SD card, wipe, and reflash it from recovery.
Sorry, I'll start from the beginning
I was on CM 7.1 RC, on emmc (always on emmc) and i downloaded 7.2 mirage, copied it to SD card, reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik, and flashed (and gapps too).
Then rebooted, and rebooted into recovery.
Then i downloaded 7.2 mirage again and flash it, nothing.
Then i did a complete wipe, and flashed again 7.1 rc, reboot, nothing.
Then i restore a previous backup of my 7.1 RC, reboots to recovery.
I turned off for a while too, nothing, it boots into recovery.
That does sound strange as your first steps sound like they should have worked fine, although I probably would have done a data and cache wipe when doing a major ROM change.
What may be worth a try is to power up with N key held down so you get into the boot menu. You can then select the boot source (emmc) and the boot type Normal and then see if that boots into CM7.
If not then it sounds like your Normal boot image has got overwritten with a clockwork image but the flash should update that unless something is failing.
I think you have to try the flash again and watch for errors.
I flashed a couple of times again, and then i make a sd-bootable card with cwm recovery and a new rom and everything goes well now (already installed ics)
A detail: when booting into boot menu, n+power, the source always is set to SD, then I change to emmc, reboot, nothing. Go to that boot menu, and again is set to SD...
Thanks for your time
ooops... it happens again!, how can i fix this, how can i format the boot entirely and start from 0 ?

Two ways I think you can go.
1. Make a clockwork SD card from eyeballer image. Put MiRaGe ROM on. This should boot and allow you to install ROM onto emmc. If card is then removed and replaced with a clean single partition non-bootable SD then this should then boot into CM7 MiRaGe and allow you to install gapps and you can then also download ROM Manager app and use that to flash CWM onto emmc as well.
2. If you have a running SD CM7 system, get ROM Manager app from the market, then use Flash CWM function to get a decent 3.2.0.1 Nook Color CWM onto emmc. Then you should be able to power + N select emmc, recovery and be able to boot into recovery OK. From there you can then install a new ROM (e.g. MiRaGe) onto emmc.
If your internal partitioning is completely screwed up then you will need to check out

and maybe use the repartition-boot-with-stock.zip to get you back to a stock boot set up.

A fundamental question.
After flashing and before rebooting, did you remove the uSD card off NC?

Need some major help! Bricked?

So today I wanted to update my ROM to the newest edition
While doing that I wanted to clean my SD card
So what I did was
Go into recovery
Factory recovery
Clean cache
Clean davick
Clean SD
Went to `reboot now` and device is stuck at Google logo
I can access bootloader and recovery
Usually I would have the rom on a external-SD which I forgot to realize there isnt one on the Nexus 7
So I tried to flash everything back to factory default using the methods here
http://forums.androidcentral.com/ne...1477-guide-nexus-7-factory-image-restore.html
and using the toolkit v4.0
I keep getting stuck at flashing the bootloader
saying `fail` flashing bootloader
I am really stuck
PLEASE HELP :crying:
edit: just lost ability to go into recovery mode
will stop doing anything till some advices..
edit2: turns out it works on another computer
NVM
SOLVED!
anyone?
dont mean to silly bump when you already solved your problem. but in case it happens again-
if you wiped the SD card by accident(i too on several occasions forget the nexus doesnt have external sd card) you can just access the sideload option in clockwork recovery
just sideload your rom via your computer, and problem solved

[Q] Keep booting into CWM

So i have the korean variant of the LG G2 (F320K)
I installed CWM which went fine. I then did an OTA update and it screwed up my phone. Basically my phone no longer boots into Android. It keeps going into CWM recovery. I cannot get into download mode at all. The phone no longer charges when turned off (It boots into CWM whenever i plug in the USB cable). So basically i'm stuck in CWM.
Tried factory reset etc... but nothing works. Tried flashing a different ROM but that doesn't work.
Can anyone help?
One thing i noticed is that under mounts, System is unmounted and every time i mount it and reboot i go straight to CWM again and system is unmounted again.
